Who shall His chos­en be?
At the com­ing of the Lord,
With woes and de­so­la­tion;
Bow down be­fore Him, peo­ple and na­tions,
And I love His ap­pearing, don’t you?
And I love His ap­pearing, don’t you?
And we who are be­liev­ing,
O Son of God, we wait for Thee,
Hope of Heav’n, oh, price­less boon!
Hope of Heav’n, oh, price­less boon!
Gladly may we her­ald the mes­sage
Gladly may we her­ald the mes­sage
Seemed to reign o’er all be­low.
So the Church should wait, and watch and pray.
The eter­nal splen­dor wear­ing; ce­les­ti­al, ho­ly blessed,
Sleep gent­ly sleep.
Herdsmen be­held these an­gels bright,
Hearts so wea­ry and so sore,
The Je­ru­sa­lem gold­en and fair;

ap­pear­ing

What shall He say of thee?
O the crown, the glo­ry crown,
Distress and tri­bu­la­tion;
Come ye and wor­ship Him, God in the high­est,
The glad day is near­ing, ’tis true;
The glad day is near­ing, ’tis true;
Shall know we are re­ceiv­ing
We know Thou sit­test on the throne,
Christ is com­ing—com­ing soon.
Christ is com­ing—com­ing soon.
Soon He’s com­ing in glo­ry, tell to one and all;
Soon He’s com­ing in glo­ry, tell to one and all;
All my thoughts in sor­row’s hour;
We may speed along the lin­ger­ing years,
As fades the day’s last light we see the lamps of night,
In their nev­er end­ing flight
Who said God’s Son is born to­night,
Now to see and love Him more!
Soon the home of the ran­somed we’ll share.
